Incognito Vegetables

Whenever I travel, I try to bring back some flower and vegetable seeds, to try out in the garden when I get home. (You can take seeds across borders as long as they are commercially packaged).

I tend to look for unusual seeds, ones that I am unlikely to find at home. They do not have to be rare.

This year, for instance, I bought among other things, seeds for a winter squash called Marina di Chioggia.
